ABSTRACT:
A two-piece telescoping shelf adaptor construction adaptable to be supported on a shelf structure in a flat or inclined position and adjustable to accommodate varying shelf depths comprising first and second members each being formed having a similar number of spaced parallel adjacent guide channels extending thereacross, the first member having a front wall extending across the front edge thereof and the second member having a rear wall extending across the rear edge thereof, the guide channels each including a floor portion and spaced upstanding wall portions extending across the first and second members to form separators between the adjacent channels, the upstanding wall portions on the second member having cross-sectional shapes and being spaced to slidably receive and telescopingly cooperate with the upstanding wall portions on the first member whereby the first and second members can be moved relative to each other in order to achieve a desired length between the front wall of the first member and the rear wall of the second member, and at least one track member positioned in and extending along each of the channels in each of the first and second members to engage and support products positioned thereon, the floor portion associated with each of the adjacent guide channels also including a plurality of apertures located adjacent to the respective track members positioned therein for enabling air to pass therethrough for circulation around the rows of products positioned in each of the guide channels. These constructions can include self-lubricating tracks and can be used by inclining existing shelves to effect gravity feeding of products of various types, sizes and shapes.
